If it's packed inside a .pk3 how should I write the path? Or maybe I should unpack it and place it in the base folder?

@Linken I forgot to mention that I have a .pk3 file with .ibi files for turning the feature on and off. I just don't know how to use them. Does the tutorial also cover that? The .pk3 file has a scripts folder containing player_morelight_off.IBI, player_morelight_off.txt, player_morelight_on.IBI, player_morelight_on.txt. The .txt files hold the set command as done in the .cfg file and the .IBI is filled with some gibberish I can't decipher. I guess I will go read your tutorial to find out. Thank you very much for responding so quickly

There's a command called SET_MORELIGHT that changes NPCs light value to 96 when it is true (makes them brighter). I want to replicate the same command but for player character. This command is intended to adjust the brightness of player characters dynamically, similar to how the SET_MORELIGHT command works for NPCs (It works only for SP Mode). The command should: - Be callable from the in-game console or a .cfg file - Toggle a moreLight property for the player entity - Adjust the player's brightness in the game by increasing their minlight value when moreLight is enabled. What I've tried so far: 1. modified entityState_s: typedef struct entityState_s { // ... qboolean moreLight; // ... } 2. Updated MSG_WriteDeltaEntity and MSG_ReadDeltaEntity to include the moreLight property. I also added an entry for moreLight in the entityStateFields array: netField_t entityStateFields[] = { // ... { NETF(moreLight), 1 }, // ... } 3. Added the SET_MORELIGHT_PLAYER command to CQuake3GameInterface::Set and mapped it in the setTable array: stringID_table_t setTable[] = { // ... ENUM2STRING(SET_MORELIGHT_PLAYER), // ... } Here's the command in CQuake3GameInterface::Set: void CQuake3GameInterface::Set( int taskID, int entID, const char *type_name, const char *data ) { // ... switch ( toSet ) { // ... case SET_MORELIGHT_PLAYER: Quake3Game()->DebugPrint(IGameInterface::WL_DEBUG, "SET_MORELIGHT_PLAYER triggered with value %s\n", data); if (!Q_stricmp("true", ((char*)data))) { Q3_SetMoreLightPlayer(entID, qtrue); } else { Q3_SetMoreLightPlayer(entID, qfalse); } break; } } 4. I wrote the Q3_SetMoreLightPlayer function to toggle the moreLight flag for the player: static void Q3_SetMoreLightPlayer(int entID, qboolean add) { gentity_t *ent = &g_entities[entID]; if (!ent || !ent->client) { Quake3Game()->DebugPrint(IGameInterface::WL_WARNING, "Invalid entity or not a player!\n"); return; } ent->s.moreLight = add; Quake3Game()->DebugPrint(IGameInterface::WL_DEBUG, "Player moreLight set to: %d\n", ent->s.moreLight); } 5. I added logic to check ent->s.moreLight and increase the minlight value for the player: if (ent->s.moreLight) { cgi_R_AddLightToScene(ent->currentOrigin, 96, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0); } 6. Created .cfg files to toggle the feature: set_morelight_player.cfg: set ( "SET_MORELIGHT_PLAYER", "true" ); echo "SET_MORELIGHT_PLAYER has been activated."; set_morelight_player_off.cfg: set ( "SET_MORELIGHT_PLAYER", "false" ); echo "SET_MORELIGHT_PLAYER has been deactivated."; Issues The Command Doesn’t Trigger the Functionality: When I execute exec set_morelight_player, I see the echo statement from the .cfg file, but the debug prints in CQuake3GameInterface::Set or Q3_SetMoreLightPlayer do not appear. Direct Console Command Doesn’t Work: Executing set ( "SET_MORELIGHT_PLAYER", "true" ); directly in the console doesn’t seem to do anything. Rendering Logic Doesn’t Respond: Even if ent->s.moreLight is toggled successfully, I don’t see any visible change in the player’s brightness. I am new to modding so I will appreciate an explanation of what should I do, given someone who knows what to do sees this post. Thank you very much May the Force be with you!
